Southside x Mas & Miek Dinner

Overview

When an art and design festival sweeps into Brisbane, as Brisbane Art Design is throughout May, checking out exhibitions and browsing for impressive wares comes with the territory. There's more to this fest than just the basics, however, no matter how stunning its showcases are — and how much perusing and purchasing you're keen to do.

Fancy learning about ceramics, then tucking into a two-course banquet with paired wines? That's also on the BAD agenda. For one night only, Southside and Mas & Miek are teaming up on a dinner that'll showcase the former's food and vino, plus the latter's hand-crafted items, and also celebrate the link between tableware and the feasts adorning them.

Across two sittings on Thursday, May 25 — at 5.30pm and 7.45pm — mother-daughter duo Mieke and Charlie from Mas & Miek will first unpack their hand-building process during a masterclass. You'll put your hands all over fine white porcelain, and you'll discover how 'pinch pot' vessels are created.

After that, this Southside x Mas & Miek dinner will use Mas & Miek's wares to plate up hiramasa kingfish, wasabi chicken and chives dumplings, and wakame potato and truffle spring rolls, as well as wok-fried pork belly and macadamia steamed market fish.

In addition to the class, food and wine, your $169 ticket also includes a handmade glazed and fired plate that'll be used while you dine, and that you can take home afterwards.
